Ode to the Evelyne

I have the same problem! As I get older I’m more sensitive to weight plus I walk quite a bit daily so my bag becomes increasingly heavier with each passing block - especially during hot humid months. I’ve been using the wide shoulder strap from Pop &Suki for the last 18 months on all my Evelynes. I alternate between the wide shoulder (which is comparable to the 85 sized strap) for crossbody or the shorter wide shoulder strap for shoulder carry. The only drawback is the color selection for the wide straps: creme/white w ghw, pistachio (light green) w shw, or red w ghw. The creme and pistachio are pebbled leather so they match a bit to the clemence grain. The straps are lightweight and very comfortable. Also did I mention they’re about $35USD. I’ve been told that the strap coordinates well with the bag; even my SA asked me about it. I’ve got the 25/85 sangle cavale as well but the clasp tends to rotate when I move so it’s rather uncomfortable. Btw, I’m 5’1” and this strap hits me at the right place.

Thank you! I still love your Bolide and all your new twillys. Yes, it’s the 29 and a bag I go back to time and time again because I find something new to love about it each time I carry it.


Can you share the things you love about it?
I am starting to read about the Evelyn 29 :girlsigh:

I was reading the strap is heavy because of the adjustment hardware. Is this true - noticeably heavy?

Is depth 3.1 inches the bags measurement with or without the small compartment?

Any idea the difference in the Evelyn 29 and Bolide 31 total weight wise?

And thank you again for always being so kind :heart:

My Evie collection from top to bottom: bleu nuit ghw PM, capucine phw PM, noir ghw PM, jaun de Naples phw TPM. The capucine PM is Maurice and the other 3 are Clemence. I switched out all the adjustable straps on the PM for 50MM 85. I’m 5’3”, the 85 hits me just right on the ribcage with the bottom of the bag resting on my hip for crossbody and they are lighter than the original adjustable straps. 047E8E55-8433-4B4A-98BE-45F1472F48FD.jpeg
